David Winter Miniature Scene “At the Bothy”. All pieces are in great condition (possible tiny chip noted to tree in scene – please see picture) and come with the original box. The cottage scene comes with a certificate of authenticity. The scene was released in 1993 and retired in 1996 and is part of the David Winter Scenes Collection. David Winter and John Hine Studios created the scenes to introduce the people who live in David Winter Cottages. The scene is hand made and hand painted in the studios & workshops of John Hine Ltd in Great Britain, and the bronze figures are handcrafted exclusively for John Hine Ltd in the United States. This small diorama includes four hand-painted bronze figures. The figures were created by Cameo Guild Inc. using the "lost wax process". It takes 35 steps to paint a David Winter Scenes miniature figurine by hand. A special glaze is then applied to protect the detail of each figure. No two miniatures are ever precisely alike. What makes this set unique is that each of the figures in this set is numbered in sequence and is a proof set. The bottom of each piece shows its number in the series: Farmer and Plough – Number 250 Farm Hand and Spade – Number 251 Farmer’s Wife – Number 252 Goose Gil – Number 253 The scene measures 4.25 x 3.25 x 1.5 inches and the figures are approximately 1 inch.
